Claude E. Shannon Award

The Claude E. Shannon Award of the IEEE Information Theory Society was created to honor consistent and profound contributions to the field of information theory. Each Shannon Award winner is expected to present a Shannon Lecture at the following IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory.[1] It is a prestigious prize in information theory, covering technical contributions at the intersection of mathematics, communication engineering, and theoretical computer science.

Recipients

The following people have received the Claude E. Shannon Award:[2]

gollark: RFTools has a builder block thing which can copy areas if you feed in the items, which makes the difficult bit just autoproducing all the items involved, which other mods can do okayishly.
gollark: It would probably be easier to just use CC and OC at least for central coordination and stuff.
gollark: That would be *doable*, if *hard* without CC and OC, probably just by using a bunch of mods allowing for autoconstruction.
gollark: I'm guessing from the other stuff you said that you want Von Neumann machines, i.e. self replicators, ingame.
gollark: <@204444905357967360> The Von Neumann architecture is actually a specific computery thing and distinct from the idea of Von Neumann machines.
